Bailey's Sweet 16th Birthday

We were truly blessed on the afternoon of Feb 18, 1994. The doctors had told me I would be having a girl, but after 3 boys I did not believe them. When the doctor told us, "It's a GIRL." I couldn't believe my ears. Tim and I were both so excited with the news, I had him on the phone announcing her arrival, instead of taking photos. She has been a true blessing from God and is growing into such a fine, sweet, talented young lady. That is not to say, she does have bad days, more often now that we are here in TX and she doesn't like it. But, she has goals and has staye dstrong on them. I have no doubt, she will accomplish what she sets her mind on. We love you very much Bailey Elizabeth. Happy Birthday dear.

Bailey turned 16 on the 18th, but didn't celebrate it until Sat the 20th with dinner at Shoguns and a cake. She was playing in a softball tournament from Thurs through Sat, that consisted of 6 games. She played very well and hit the ball hard during the games. They were a long 3 days, with school in there too. Mom made her a cake, and then we worked together and decorated it with fondont, we were pretending to be on the Ace of Cakes, we have a long way too go. She got the Nook for her birthday, hoping this will save dad and I on the book money spent each year at barnes and Nobles.
